Just saw your additional posts on the clothesline mod concerning the mount procedure. Please ignore my question about the mounting hardware as you have already answered it.

Two questions. The first is, did you install the port hole access for sink and faucet maintenance? The second concerns the tie down mounts. Did you use through bolts and backing plates on any of the mounts for the closet or clothesline anchors or just the VHB tape and surface screws? Nice job?

Could you use your pvc fresh water chlorine injector on the black tank flush line and inject the mineral oil into the black tank?

When we first picked our used Ollie in January, we had a leak in the dinette window. While searching the forum, I found a post by DavePhelps discussing the porch light leaking issue. I pretty much followed his procedure and did not have any problems until this month. My first thought was that I didn’t do a very good job on the light over the curbside bed. While testing with a hose, I started at the bottom of the sliding window and immediately had a leak. We have had so much rain that I haven’t gotten the window tracks clean and there is nothing on the bench except towels to catch any leakage. It leaked again on Thursday after a very hard rain, so it’s a work in progress. We’ll be in Hohenwald the end of August if I haven’t figured it out by then. Thank you for the suggestions???

Amen to that Overland?

Funny you should rant! Came home Friday from an overnight visit to my mother-in—laws house. The trailer stayed at home and we did have a big rain Thursday, rain gauge said 5”. Opened the trailer up on Saturday to find the curbside and rear cushions very wet. Took them out to dry and cleaned up the water in the window, the bench area and the plumbing area. With things dried out this morning, I applied water to the bottom portion of the sliding window and the boss immediately screamed stop. She dried that up and we tried the stationary window and it was okay. So now I need to dry the window area again and try to determine why it is leaking. Maybe it’s just dirty and debris is preventing the window from closing completely. We’ll see.

ScubaRx has a flag pole mount on the back of hull #50 and someone else has a suction cup flag pole mount. Either would work for a temporary cellular antenna mount.

Did the camp host have the WeBoost external antenna mounted to a mast? Are you referring to the Cradlepoint router’s twin rubber antennas? Is your router connected to a WeBoost?

Our 2 Border Terriers always travel in crates, but after watching the videos we may have to rethink our choice of crates. Randy, thanks for the link.

Yes Sherry, you are correct. The original posting about tank sensors slipped into cleaning tanks and I apologize for contributing to the confusion by not staying on topic.

Bed Bath & Beyond Enjoy!

Try searching the internet for the “Geo method”. It suggest using Calgon and Dawn dish soap for RV tank cleaning. Borax can also be substituted for Calgon. The Calgon or Borax will soften hard water and Dawn will clean the inside of the tanks. I add both after dumping my tanks. Driving the trailer home or to the next camping spot acts as the agitator. Works for us.

Ya got that right????

I would support the Ollie Store.

I try to keep it light sometimes???

I’m glad you found it useful. It’s a cheap and simple mod. One suggestion for anyone adapting this for their use is to cut the short horizontal with the chair tip last. It will be easier to make your frame horizontal when installed. Good luck!

Amazon?? Good Luck on your fishing trip. I think you said you were heading to Idaho correct? Not sure where you are going, but Krunch and I visited this National Monument a few years back. We weren’t camping at the time but we thought it was a unique place and the campground was clean. Not much shade but very interesting.

Hopefully these pictures are right side up.

And now you are wondering how I posted those pictures upside down! Me too?‍♂️ Maybe a moderator can fix um?

I was trying to figure out a way to reduce grey water production and have a larger shower and came up with this mod. It doesn’t take long to set up and it affords us some privacy. The first pic is the gear bundled for storage and travel. The second pic shows the frame installed. The third pic has the shower curtain installed and ready for use. And before everyone has a laugh ? at my expense, these pictures are on the curb side for demonstration purposes only. There is too much vegetation on the street side for pictures.

As soon as it quits raining here in Florida I’ll set it up and take some pictures and post them.

Actually it is a piece of 1/2” pvc pipe with chair leg cups on each end and 2 small Harbor Freight suction cups for each set of drawers. When parked, we use the setup inside or out for hanging wet things. And after seeing a recent mod for a shower curtain, I believe it will work for that as well. I also have a similar setup for an outside shower curtain. Got to love pvc.

This is my band of choice for the last few months.

Mike and Krunch will be in site #4. It’s less than 5months away?

Is there a way to merge the camera system signal from the rear of the trailer, electronic or hardwire, so I do not have to mount another monitor? Thanks Coy aka Hardrock There is a way to do this if your truck display has RCA connectivity. Jensen makes the Voyager cameras Oliver is installing. They also make a wireless receiver that will connect to non Voyager equipment through RCA connectors. So if your truck monitor has RCA connectivity this receiver would plug into it and should display the rear view camera output. Your GMC dealer may be able to answer the question about the RCA connections. See the attached pictures from Rvcams.com and be sure to read the fine print about camera compatibility. Also check with www.rvcams.com for support. Let me know if you need any further assistance. I personally use the rear view camera whenever the Ollie is connected. I turn the rear view mirror toward the ceiling or temporarily remove it and place the Voyager display high in place of the mirror. Looking at the Ollie in my rear view mirror drives me nuts so I eliminate that view.
